Ye Qing knew that Xi Yue was very focused on her work and that she intended to achieve something great in it.
But now, when Ye Qing heard Xi Yue say, "We can't be so unambitious," he knew that Xi Yue's determination was even greater than he had imagined.
Since she had said so, Ye Qing felt like her own child had grown up and was about to make progress, and she couldn't let her down. So she didn't hesitate any longer and said after thinking for a moment, "Okay, I'll go take a look."
Although Ye Qing was ready to start working, since nothing had been started yet, she figured it was others who were busy, so she didn't care about taking a little time. She put down her work, didn't bother tidying up, and went straight to Xi Yue and Li Yeming's studio.
When Ye Qing arrived, Xi Yue and Li Yeming were arguing. Ye Qing didn't know what they were arguing about because a colleague from the studio had quietly told her.
After hearing this, Ye Qing remained silent for a moment, smiled at the person who had spoken to her to indicate that everything was alright, and then went to knock on Li Yeming's office door.
Li Yeming's office was relatively soundproof; you couldn't hear anything from the outside. After knocking, the door was opened from the inside after a short while.
Although Ye Qing didn't hear anything, she could tell from the open office door that Li Yeming and Xi Yue were both very angry. Thinking about what Li Yeming's colleague had told her earlier, Ye Qing knew that what he said was true; Li Yeming and Xi Yue had indeed had a fight.
Standing at the door, Ye Qing composed herself, turned around and closed the door before casually asking, "What's wrong?"
Xi Yue and Li Yeming looked at Ye Qing after hearing her words, but neither of them spoke first.
Seeing this, Ye Qing didn't expect the two of them to speak. Although neither of them said anything, Ye Qing could guess what they were talking about. The argument between Xi Yue and Li Yeming was most likely about splitting up the studio.
Moreover, Ye Qing had come here today specifically because of this matter, so he asked directly, "Sister Li, you called me here because of the studio split, right? Just say what you want to say. Xi Yue is here too, so let's discuss this. To be honest, this matter has nothing to do with me, because I don't have any shares in your studio."
Hearing Ye Qing's words, Li Yeming composed herself and said, "I told Xi Yue that splitting up the studio is fine, but the trademark must be mine. Although splitting up the studio has nothing to do with your interests, Ye Qing, you previously mentioned collaborating with Nancheng University to run some kind of class in my name. We said we'd discuss it after the New Year, and now that it's the New Year, has this matter started being discussed again? Since it's in my name..."
Before Li Yeming could finish speaking, Ye Qing interrupted her, and even began to understand why Xi Yue was so angry and why she was in such a hurry to split up the studio with Li Yeming.
"Sister Li, let me correct you on one point. I did mention before that I wanted to start a class with Nancheng University. I even contacted them before I gave birth, and both sides expressed their intention to discuss the matter further. But I never said that I would start a class in Nancheng in your name."
"You..." Li Yeming was extremely anxious upon hearing Ye Qing's words: "How could you say that? Back then you..."
"I didn't mean to do it in your name. My original intention was to train more people to make traditional clothing. If this is successful, I hope you can give lectures, since you have a lot of experience in this field."
Ye Qing believed that she had made herself very clear, both then and now. However, even though she had explained herself, Li Yeming still seemed to have something to say. Ye Qing spoke a few more words before Li Yeming could: "Moreover, although I said that I would help your studio cultivate more talents in this field, that was only for your studio, which has a business relationship with Zitai Fashion."
You've been trying to terminate your contract with Zitai Fashion. In this situation, even if we do reach a cooperation agreement with Nancheng University, I can't do it for you. Wouldn't that be a waste of time and effort? I'm not a charity worker; I'm a designer, but I'm also a businessman. I definitely won't do a losing business.
Furthermore, now that you're splitting up the studio with Xi Yue, even if you reach a cooperation agreement with Nancheng University in the future, I can't possibly suggest that the cooperation be conducted in your name.
Ye Qing really wanted to say that your idea was simply a pipe dream.
But after thinking about it, she swallowed her words again, because judging from Li Yeming's posture, it couldn't be explained in a few words. Since it couldn't be explained immediately, there was no point in making such definitive statements at the beginning; it would only make the talks fall apart.
Li Yeming was speechless after Ye Qing's words. In fact, Li Yeming couldn't quite remember what Ye Qing had said back then. The reason she said that was simply because Xi Yue's desire to split up the studio was so strong that Li Yeming really couldn't find any other reason to continue delaying.
Moreover, Li Yeming was worried that once she and Xi Yue separated the studio, she wouldn't be able to run it on her own. If she couldn't run it, she wouldn't have any money, and how would she live without money?
He used to be counting on Jiang Xinya, but now Li Yeming realizes he's messed things up and there's no hope left for her.
With no hope for Jiang Xinya, Li Yeming considered every possible solution. Finally, he remembered Ye Qing's suggestion to start a class. Li Yeming reasoned that if he were to actually teach, he would surely have some money, if not a lot.
That's why I insisted on using this matter to discuss splitting up the studio with Xi Yue.
However, to his surprise, Ye Qing cleared himself of all responsibility in just a few words, meaning that the matter of opening a class and running a school that he mentioned earlier had nothing to do with him.
Although Li Yeming's rational mind told her that Ye Qing's words were normal, and that they were now thinking of splitting up the studio, they definitely didn't want to have anything to do with her anymore.
Li Yeming felt he had to seize this opportunity, otherwise what would he do in the future?
So even though Ye Qing left him speechless, Li Yeming felt he had to make up for it with something.
"That's true, but Ye Qing, when you're going to talk to the other party about cooperation, you need to have a reason, or at least something that you can present. My studio's trademark is a signboard. Without that signboard, it won't be so easy for you to talk to them."
Ye Qing had expected Li Yeming to come up with some explanation, but she didn't expect her to say something like that. Ye Qing couldn't help but laugh, and even Xi Yue, who hadn't said anything until now, couldn't help but laugh when she heard Li Yeming say that.
